Chapter 1287: Prison Heist -Part 2

"Do not point any guns to the Xeon Union and focus your efforts on stopping that space shuttle. We do not need a Texican Standoff (Mexican Standoff). Fire at the space shuttle whenever it is in range." Captain Farlinger said and later requested another officer for the information about the shuttle, pilot and the passengers as soon as possible.

"Also, tell them to ground every other space flight going in or out of the Colony and disallow anyone from knocking off from their job. After all, if Space Colony 969 had approved the immigration, that means there's someone on the inside that had been their collaborator." Captain Farlinger added and his officers were scrambling around the deck to fulfil his request while sending units and directing the ship's guns towards the speeding space shuttle.

It was pretty obvious it looked like a suicide attack and the only advantage the space shuttle had was the element of surprise. Guns were supposed to be deactivated prior to the prisoner exchange due to the agreement of non aggression. They even had to unarm the Mechas, allowing only physical weapons and shields so any movements from either side would mean they were not honouring the agreement.

But this suicidal space shuttle took them off guard and by the time the guns were ready, the shuttle was already at roaring max speed (As if one can hear anything in space…perhaps in its different their world) The guns from both spaceships already took aim, calculated and compensated for any deviations when the space shuttle tried to dodge from the attack. In the meantime, the Mechas readied their shields in case of a large explosion that the space shuttle might pack despite its size.

"Fire!" One of the higher ranked officers within the ship's deck ordered and the crew released the volley of fire towards the incoming suicide shuttle. However, they did not know that on the other side of the battlefield, Peppers had already accumulated a sufficient amount of spells to give the entourage of ships a taste of their own medicine too.

The space shuttle had been reinforced with Peppers' own signature energy barrier spell, the Aegis while the mage simultaneously unleashed a series of explosions targeting the Mechas and smaller space crafts within the vicinity of the two maximum security prison spaceships.

The sudden explosions caused both factions' captains to be flabbergasted. They were demanding their crew to quickly check for other external threats which they could be unaware of. However, seeing that both ships had been attacked, it was rather apparent to deduce the attack was done by a third party, most likely some splinter group or resistance organisations that had been undermining their war.

Yet, before they could identify any threats, another series of explosions occurred. This time, they were aimed at the ships' engines and boosters. "I thought we had our shields up?!" Captain Farlinger questioned his crew and yet he saw that the ship's shields were working perfectly fine. In fact, it was taking damage from the impact of explosions that occurred on the ship itself.

The first line of Mechas had been disabled by the mysterious explosions, leaving only the second and third line of Mechas to rush forth to stop the threat. All of them seem to know the value of this particular prisoner exchange and even if they do not, the intercoms had been blaring with the sound of communication officers to immediately stop the threat.

"Peppers, are you going to do something about that line of Mechas coming in?" Sebastia asked and the Mage Bellator laughed. Even without picking up her staff, she pointed at the incoming mechas with her fingers, now in the shape of a gun and shooting off like a little kid playing as a gunslinger.

Though in reality, there was a magical circle emerging right above the space shuttle and bolts of metal of unknown origin were seen flying out of it, attacking each and every one of the Mechas on sight. The pilots thought that it was just a hunk of steel coming their way, but its penetrative power was more than what the shields could handle mainly because their defensive armaments were attuned to be against lasers rather than physical attacks. For something to be so modern, the Mechas were not ready to be against such primitive attacks, allowing the bolts of steel to penetrate through.

The most terrifying thing was that those steel pikes were perfectly aimed directly towards the cockpit, instantly killing the pilots who were moving the Mechas. Even as the others who noticed the pattern attack tried to evade but somehow, the attacks were as fast as modern lasers.

"I am surprised that you did not take the opportunity to make a flowery show of explosions," Sebastia said as she steadied the pilot to tell him to keep moving forward.

"Hmmph! I know Jin would want the Mechas as a reference and this seems to be the perfect opportunity to do so since they are all coming at us. Killing the pilots and leaving most of the stuff intact." Peppers giggled with a wide smile. "Also, this will allow me to have more System points for me to spend! Hehe!"

"But they are currently being left all around the battlefield like floating scrap metal. By the time we are done, they could have drifted somewhere else." Sebastia said as she saw the carnage up close while the Mechas were in chaos.

"Don't worry, I will teleport them soon enough once I am done roasting the rest of the spaceships." Peppers said but she was already teleporting the Mechas before they were out of her sight. And there Sebastia thought that Peppers was doing it because Jin asked.

Guess, the Mage Bellator did have her own agenda in this current heist.
